Mia straightened up. "Michael is the guy who was hospitalized after being beaten up by me," she announced, holding her phone up for emphasis. Leo and Molly were silent. Memories of a certain incident were still fresh in their minds.

Mia scrolled through her phone, and showed them her messages with Michael, which were full of witty banter and jokes.

Michael, who she had sent countless thumbs-up emojis to, was with promises of cash bonuses. Mia grimaced. "All this is for a measly two hundred bucks."

At the mention of their shared past, Leo and Molly broke into hearty applause for Mia.

The man upstairs, Andre, couldn't help but chuckle at the sight. He knew what was going on another one of his wife's funny schemes.

Leo sneakily glanced towards Andre's study, meeting his eyes and receiving a nod of approval from him.

Mia was blissfully unaware of her husband's cunning nature; he could fool anyone, even his beloved wife. She was even trying to hide this plan from him.

After minutes of strategizing, Mia decided she would be the one to reach out to Michael. She knew him best, after all. While sending him messages on her phone, she reassured her family, "When it gets tough, you can always count on me." Out of nowhere, a message from Sugar Mama popped up on Michael's screen.

Mia, the Sugar Mama, texted, [Remember all those thumbs up I sent you? Maybe you should thank me.]

Michael said, [I'm just an ordinary guy, with no money, but plenty of time.]

Sugar Mama replied, [I'm not interested in your money. I'll pay you fifty thousand to do a job for me. Bring your friends.]

Leo got up as soon as he saw the message, intending to report to Andre.
